Flexural Performance of FRP-Reinforced Concrete Beams Using Ultra High Strength Concrete
(2022-04)This research investigated the flexural performance of beams reinforced with fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) bars and cast using Ultra High Strength Concrete (UHSC) with a nominal compressive strength of 140 MPa. A total ... -
Flexural Performance of RC Beams with Hybrid Combination of Conventional FRP and PET Laminates
(2023-03)Externally bonded fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites are widely used to strengthen reinforced concrete (RC) beams. However, due to composites' brittleness, strengthened beams usually fail by premature brittle debonding ... -
Flexural Performance of Reinforced Concrete Beams Externally Strengthened with Carbon and Basalt FRP Sheets
(2015-05)Different strengthening systems have been widely used for many years to retrofit and repair deficient structural members. Reinforced concrete (RC) slabs and beams are commonly strengthened in flexure by externally bonding ... -
Flexural Response of Reinforced Concrete One-Way Slabs Embedded with Pet Bottles
(2023-05)The feasibility of a cost-effective and eco-friendly slab system to be used in developing regions is investigated. The system consists of a thin reinforced concrete slab that is embedded with polyethylene terephthalate ... -
Flexural Strengthening of Reinforced Concrete Beams with Externally Side-Bonded CFRP Laminates
(2016-04)Carbon fiber reinforcement polymer (CFRP) composite sheets and plates are widely used nowadays in civil engineering applications to externally strengthen structural concrete elements against deficiencies in flexure and ... -
Flow Simulations of Axisymmetric Prolate Particles in a Cylindrical Pore
(2015-01)The motion of small particles in a fluid is a classical fluid mechanics problem. The present study investigates the motion of axisymmetric prolate spheroids and Cassini ovals of micro-scale through Newtonian and non-Newtonian ... -
Fluid properties impact on energy separation in Ranque–Hilsch vortex tube
(Springer Nature, 2022)This paper examines the energy separation in vortex tubes which is a passive device that can split a pressurized room temperature gas stream to hot and cold streams. The paper employs numerical simulations to investigate ... -
A Fluorescence-Based Chemical Sensor for Detection of Melamine in Aqueous Solutions
(MDPI, 2021)Melamine, an industrial chemical, receives wide attention nowadays because of its unethical usage as a nitrogen enhancer in protein-rich foods and dairy products. Since most of the existing melamine detection methods are ... -
Fluorescent aminal linked porous organic polymer for reversible iodine capture and sensing
(Nature, 2020)A novel triazene-anthracene-based fuorescent aminal linked porous organic polymer (TALPOP) was prepared via metal free-Schif base polycondensation reaction of 9,10-bis-(4,6-diamino-S-triazin2-yl)anthracene and 2-furaldehyde. ... -
Fluorescent Immunoassays for Detection and Quantification of Cardiac Troponin I: A Short Review
(MDPI, 2021)Cardiovascular diseases are considered one of the major causes of human death globally. Myocardial infarction (MI), characterized by a diminished flow of blood to the heart, presents the highest rate of morbidity and ... -
Fluoroscopic 3D Images Generation Using A GAN Method
(2022-12)Respiratory motion is a major source of error in radiation therapy for thorax and lung cancer. Image-Guided Radiation Therapy (IGRT) is the use of frequent imaging during radiation therapy to enhance the precision and ... -
Fog Computing Approach for Shared Mobility in Smart Cities
(MDPI, 2021)Smart transportation a smart city application where traditional individual models are transforming to shared and distributed ownership. These models are used to serve commuters for inter- and intra-city travel. However, ... -
Folding and unfolding in periodic difference equations
(Elseiver, 2014)Given a p-periodic difference equation xn+1 = fn mod p(xn), where each fj is a continuous interval map, j = 0, 1, . . . , p − 1, we discuss the notion of folding and unfolding related to this type of non-autonomous equations. ... -
